Customizing Your Camera in the CANVID Editor

In the CANVID Editor, you have full control over how your camera appears in your video. Whether you want to reposition it, style it, or mirror it — it’s all just a few clicks away.

How to Access Camera Settings

3. Use the available controls to adjust your camera’s appearance

What You Can Customize

• Toggle Camera On/Off
  Use the switch at the top of the Camera sidebar menu to enable or disable your camera in the screen recording.

• Camera Positioning
  You can move your camera to 8 different positions on the screen — top corners, bottom corners, center edges, and center screen.

• Mirror Camera
  Flip your camera horizontally using the Mirror toggle, useful for correcting orientation or matching viewer perspective.

• Frame Adjustments
  Fine-tune the look and placement of your camera window by adjusting:
  
  • Roundness - Set how curved of square the corners are
  • Offset - Move the camera slightly inward/outward from its anchor position
  • Size - Scale the camera up/down to your liking
• Camera during zoom
  Choose what the camera does during zoom moments
  
  • Reduce size (Default setting) - The camera shrinks when zooming
  • Do nothing - The camera size stays the same when zooming
  • Hide - The camera fades out when zooming
